Hello,

 

Here is an Onigawara tsuba with inscription on the back side made with silver inlay. In my opinion first kanji is "天" (Heaven) and second "王" (King). I have no idea about the last one. 

 

I asked on facebook and got two possiblie options: 

 1. ten-jin-chi: heaven-man-earth

2. Tennoji: name of the temple in Tokyo or district in Osaka. 

 

Please let me know what are your thoughts.

 

Regards, 

Krystian
